Daily Links Post graphic

Each day at just after midnight Eastern, a post like this one is created for contributors and readers of this site to upload news links and video links on the issues that concern this site. Most notably, Islam and its effects on Classical Civilization, and various forms of leftism from Soviet era communism, to postmodernism and all the flavours of galloping statism and totalitarianism such as Nazism and Fascism which are increasingly snuffing out the classical liberalism which created our near, miraculous civilization the West has been building since the time of Socrates.

This document was written around the time this site was created, for those who wish to understand what this site is about. And while our understanding of the world and events has grown since then, the basic ideas remain sound and true to the purpose.

So please post all links, thoughts and ideas that you feel will benefit the readers of this site to the comments under this post each day. And thank you all for your contributions.

This is the new Samizdat. We must use it while we can.

    IT IS A WASTE OF TIME TO DIVORCE A WIFE WITH MALE CHILDREN IN IGBO LAND

    By Anayo M. Nwosu

    “Our ancestors had forewarned that “uzo eji nwa adighi èchí échî” meaning that a marital relationship that has produced a child can never be deemed closed or ended.”

    “Chief Ekwueme was confused…”

    “Ekwueme had married Ukwunnu when she was 16 and himself was 32. He was now 55 years old and the wife was just 39 with increased libido.

    Ekwueme not only disflowered Ukwunnu but was also responsible for her quick development of all feminine features that would make a woman delectable.”

    He made her into his very own whore.

    “She was nicknamed “Nwanyidiuto” meaning “a very sweet woman” by her hailers.”

    Butter would not melt in her mouth.

    “A few weeks denial to a woman used to a regular dosage of sex is like starving a cocaine addict of a day’s tincture of the whitish substance.”

    There was no love and not shared companionship between helpmates in this marriage.

    “So, only an experienced psychologist would understand why Ukwunnu went fishing for any other man who could help her feel a masculine power as in the old. She would no longer suffer in silence.”

    So now it’s only an expert can figure out that what you sow you shall reap!!!

    “In most Igbo communities, adultery was not enough an offence for a man to divorce the mother of his children.”

    “It must be noted that a case of adultery in the most pre-colonial Igbo communities was not a mortal sin.”

    “However, some Igbo communities allowed for a married man and woman to have an “iko or agili” with whom a sexual intercourse was allowed.”

    “Approved adultery by way of iko or agili is still being practised in some Igbo communities of Aguleri, Umuleri, Anam and local communities in Onitsha Ado.”

    “The appropriate time is when the children of a divorced woman are of age. At that time, she would majestically go back home to live with her children; even though she would be addressed as “mother of Ekwueme’s children” not “Ekwueme’s wife”. But, does it matter?”

    Creating sons like mothers. Narcissists. Both into her.

    “A son can also bury his divorced mother beside his uncompromising father. He calls the shots and the man is lying silent in the grave.”

    Spit upon whatever was left of the reminant of his soul.

    “Chief Ekwueme was a very wise man who was also well grounded in Igbo tradition. He considered all the implications of whatever choice available to him and had seen through the futility of pursuing a divorce in either the regular court or following the traditional route.”

    So wise, that he brought all this trouble on himself.

    “Ekwueme couldn’t also take another wife because he neither had enough money to take care of them…”

    Broke. Trapped. Cannot build a kingdom of sane children who respect their father – because he was respectful to their mother.

    “After all, Chief Ekwueme himself nicknamed “oti okwe ori okwe” by his close friends, recalled that he too was not innocent of adultery.”

    Known as the goat.

    “He rang his testicles as a bell whenever his wife was pregnant or was breastfeeding.”

    All he had.

    ***A great lesson of Cucks in Igbo Culture and tradition***
    https://m.facebook.com/permalink.php?story_fbid=848220692022696&id=369592096552227

    These words to describe the magnificance of wise Chief Ekwueme, who when unable to sexually perform – should by his own failing allow his wife her greatness too. Who cares that she is called mother-of-son and not wife-of-husband. You are all proud Igbos on the Welfare States around the world after all.

    The serpent behind this could not do any finer, because next we will hear about homosexuals in ‘traditional Igboland’ having even more of that powerful sexual identity you hold so dear. That is, in the traditional training of young boys that just maybe one tribe did or had done by rumour. Tap into this devine force.

    Then Sexuals too, can stand up and become your priests to forgive you in your one night stands. More of your captors using circular reasoning to suck you in from ever becoming aware and conscious.

    More ground rice for heaps of identity or will the real Igbo stand up?

  3. Migrants in Libya detention center recount dire conditions (abcnews, Jul 18, 2019)
    https://abcnews.go.com/International/wireStory/migrants-libya-detention-center-recount-dire-conditions-64408981

    “Migrants held in a detention center in southern Libya say they live in unhygienic conditions and often face food shortages amid neglect from international organizations.

    Among those in the dilapidated center in the city of Sabha, which is about 650 kilometers, or 400 miles, south of the capital, Tripoli, is Ahmed Saleh Ibrahim, a 19-year-old Sudanese who made his way into Libya with the help of smugglers last year.

    Ibrahim says “the most important thing we want is the cleaning materials, as well as food.”

    Libya became a major conduit for African migrants fleeing to Europe after the 2011 uprising that ousted and killed longtime ruler Moammar Gadhafi.

    The EU has spent millions to equip and train Libya’s coast guard and to improve the conditions of the detention centers.”

    “Police say they are searching apartments of Islamic extremists in western Germany amid suspicions of possible plans for an attack.

    Cologne police said that the raids started at around 4 a.m. Thursday and centered on an apartment in nearby Dueren, where officers were searching for “concrete indications” of any plans for an attack.

    They said in a statement that more details were expected later in the day.”

      German authorities raided an apartment in the city of Duren in the western state of North Rhine-Westphalia on Thursday, reportedly targeting suspected Islamist extremists based on intelligence reports suggesting “concrete indications” of a planned attack.

      Footage shows several police personnel standing outside a four storey red brick apartment building with two police vans stationed outside.

      Two men were reportedly taken in for questioning with the police expected to release further information regarding the search operation later today.

    https://www.thenational.ae/world/mena/houthis-launch-skirmishes-in-hodeidah-days-after-agreeing-de-escalation-at-un-meeting-1.887673

    “The Houthi militia has launched a skirmish against pro-government forces in the Yemeni port city of Hodeidah in a move described as a violation of the terms of a de-escalation agreement reaffirmed this week.

    The head of the Redeployment and Coordination Committee, Lt Gen Michael Lollesgaard, mediated a discussion between representatives of the government and the rebels on-board a UN ship in international waters between Hodeidah and Makah earlier this week.

    The two sides agreed to work towards implementing troop withdrawals from the city as laid out in December’s UN-brokered peace talks.

    But on Thursday, a military official in the pro-government Joint Forces in Hodeidah told The National that Houthi forces launched a push against their positions around Kilo-16, a key supply route between the city and the rebel-held capital of Sanaa…”

  6. Feminist Magazine Admits Migrants Behind Most Pool Sex Assaults (breitbart, Jul 18, 2019)
    https://www.breitbart.com/europe/2019/07/18/feminist-magazine-admits-migrants-behind-most-pool-sex-assaults/

    “While police and other authorities have been hesitant to blame migrants for pool sex assaults, one German feminist magazine has published an article admitting most assaults are carried out by them.

    The article, published by Cologne-based feminist magazine Emma, admitted that young migrant men were responsible for the majority of sex attacks in outdoor pools across the country.

    “Women are massively harassed by migrants. Swimming champions are abused. In addition, there is a high degree of violence and the lack of any respect! An outdoor swimming pool should be a place of recreation and not a place of horror!” president of the Federal Association of German Swimming Champions Peter Harzheim told the magazine.

    “Since 2015 there are problems in our baths with young migrants. It was a slow process. In the meantime, the impression prevails that only young Arab-born men can dare to go to the outdoor pool,” Harzheim added.

    According to the police of North Rhine-Westphalia, where the majority of sex attacks in outdoor pools are said to occur, most perpetrators are “young men of North African, Arab, and Turkish origin”.

    The magazine goes on to assert that women and even young girls are often harassed by migrant men claiming they are often fondled by them underwater, have their bikinis pulled down or are molested and filmed while in the pool’s showers.

    Some pools have attempted to alleviate the issues of sex attacks by banning migrants from the pools, but such bans have been overturned after being met with outrage from leftist groups.

    “We need more backing from the police and also from politicians. These rioters must be cracked harder. Those who do not mention the problem by name, only aggravate it!” Harzheim said.

    As early as 2016, Breitbart London reported on the rise of migrant sex attacks after a report from the Dusseldorf police was leaked in July of that year.”

    When Mohammad Shah realized his family would never be able to afford the $15,000 demanded by his fiancee’s father for a traditional Afghan wedding, he turned to the one group he knew would help: the Islamic State.

    The 23-year-old left his village in the northern province of Jowzjan about four months ago to join the militant group, which has seen a recent influx of foreign fighters bolster its presence in Afghanistan. Soon afterward, Shah and other Islamic State fighters stormed his fiancee’s house and kidnapped her at gunpoint. They later married in a ceremony at a mosque.

    In Utrecht, a senior officer was sacked and faces court proceedings after being revealed by a crown witness to have been in the pay of Ridouan Taghi, a notorious suspected drugs baron currently on trial, with 15 accomplices, accused of organising a string of underworld killings.

    In the southern province of Limburg, another commanding officer and three more junior staff have been suspended for “suspected unprofessional behaviour” after an investigation into four police personnel who were taken off active duty in April.

    In Amsterdam, the paper said, a 55-year-old officer was suspended and arrested last week in the seventh such incident since May. Officers in the Dutch capital have been sacked or suspended for possession of hard drugs, forgery, tampering with official computers and divulging confidential information.

    • This is a very simplified explination, there were other reasons for the defeat of the South then just less manpower. While the superior numbers of the North played a large role in the defeat other thinks were just as important. One was the supply of gold that was shipped East from the Western gold fields, the superior transportation network (the northern railroads) that allowed the quick movement of troops and supplies. The superior naval power of the North was another major factor since it allowed a massive blockade of the Southern States that prevented them from receiving large amounts of weapons from Europe. Then there was the much underrated abilities of Grant, Sherman and many other Generals of the North.

  12. Italy: Sea-Watch 3 captain Rackete arrives in court for questioning

    German captain Carola Rackete, who sparked an international debate after forcibly docking the rescue vessel Sea-Watch 3 in the Italian port of Lampedusa arrived in court in Sicilian town of Agrigento on Thursday.

    Rackete will be questioned by the Italian prosecutor on charges of aiding illegal immigration.

    Footage shows the 31-year-old swarmed by journalists as she refuses to make any comments to the media on her way to the court.

    Rackete, who captained the migrant rescue ship Sea-Watch 3, was detained in Italy after refusing to comply with a ban on entering Italy’s territorial waters. The vessel was carrying more than 40 migrants and after weeks at sea, Rackete decided to port in Lampedusa on June 29, ramming a police boat in the process.

    Later, an Italian judge freed Rackete, saying she had not broken the law and that she had been carrying out her duty to protect human life. Despite that, Rackete is also being investigated for aiding illegal immigration and entering Italian waters defying an order to stop.

  13. USA: Trump says he has no regrets about tweets against congresswomen
    US President Donald Trump said he did not regret tweeting that four Democratic freshmen congresswomen should “go back” to their home countries, despite them all being US citizens, as he departed the White House in Washington DC for a rally in North Carolina on Wednesday.

    “If people want to leave our country, they can. If they don’t want to love our country, if they don’t want to fight for our country, they can,” Trump said. “I’ll never change on that. No.”

    Trump said he was not “relishing the fight” with the congresswomen, but “enjoying it because I have to get the word out to the American people.

    Trump addressed questions concerning the background of Rep. Ilhan Omar of Minnesota, saying “there’s a lot of talk about the fact that she was married to her brother. I know nothing about it. I hear she was married to her brother.”

    Omar arrived to the United States in 1992 as a refugee from Somalia.

    As Omar was running for a seat in the Minnesota House in 2016, conservative bloggers maintained she was simultaneously married to two men, one of which was alleged to be her brother.

    These allegations have since been disproven by marriage records.

    The US President sparked controversy over the weekend with a series of tweets seemingly aimed at new Democratic congresswomen Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Rashida Tlaib, Ayanna Pressley and Ilhan Omar that were widely condemned as racist. He wrote that the representatives – three of whom were born in the US and all American citizens – should “go back and help fix the totally broken and crime infested places from which they came.”

    • Haryana: Gang of transgenders in police custody for assault in Karnal

      July 18 (ANI): Police on Thursday took at least six transgenders into custody after a video of them allegedly thrashing two men outside a dhaba in Karnal , went viral on social media platforms. Police said they have not yet received any complaint from the victims.

      The video potrays at least six transgenders fiercely thrashing one man with a small bat-like object outside Chardi Kala Dhaba in Karnal . Later they were seen attacking his accomplice who was seated in his car outside the Dhaba.
      “The incident took place on July 11, on receiving the information police
      reached the spot and all the transgenders were taken into custody. But, we haven’t received any complaint from both the sides yet, neither have we received any call from the nearby hospitals,” said Sachin
      Kumar, Station House Officer (SHO).

      “We did call one of the victims, he wasn’t available today and he will be filing a complaint tomorrow. We will start a proper investigation soon after we receive his complaint,” Kumar added.

      According to the police, the incident came into light when the video went viral on social media platforms on Wednesday. The clash was triggered by a
      dispute between the two men and a gang of transgenders.

      The two part viral video shows shows a man covered in blood with torn clothes lying outside the Dhaba. The second clip shows two transgenders attacking another man and damaging his car with a bat-like object, the man somehow managed to flee the spot in his car, leaving his injured friend outside the Dhaba.

      Police said it is currently investigating the footage and will soon start a fullfledged probe into the matter after receiving a complaint from the victims.

    • moon of alabama –How The News About Italian Far-Right Fighters In Ukraine Got Confused

      Fast pacing news can be confusing. Reports appear which contradict each other. They miss some significant details. News that was fake news can suddenly becomes right. Correct versions of the news can become fake news.[…]

      […]The confusion can be explained. There are several right-wing parties in Italy. The Lega Nord is a nationalist/populist party. It is currently led by the Deputy Prime Minister of Italy, Matteo Salvini.

      […]The people arrested yesterday are associated with the Forza Nuova party which is much smaller than the Lega Nord and outright fascist

      One of the men arrested yesterday once was a candidate for Forza Nuova. It is not astonishing to learn that he fought on the side of Ukrainian fascists against the Donbass separatists

      Mainstream media like to put all right-wing parties into the same ‘far-right’ basket. But there is much more nuance on the far-right than most people assume.

      […]What can we learn from this fiasco?

      The first lesson is to never trust the news. Does it make sense?

  21. ‘Appalling’ arson attack on Japanese animation studio kills at least 33

    TOKYO (Reuters) – A man shouted “die” as he doused an animation studio with fuel and set it ablaze in Japan on Thursday, public broadcaster NHK said, killing at least 33 people in the nation’s worst mass murder in nearly two decades.

    Prime Minister Shinzo Abe called the attack in the city of Kyoto – the latest grisly killing in a nation widely known for its low crime rates – “too appalling for words” and offered condolences.

    Police detained a 41-year-old man who shouted “die” as he poured what appeared to be petrol around the three-storey Kyoto Animation building shortly after 10 a.m. (0100 GMT), public broadcaster NHK reported.

    Thirty-three people were confirmed dead, an official for the Kyoto City Fire Department said.

    Fire engulfed the building and white and black smoke billowed from its charred windows. It was Japan’s worst mass killing since a suspected arson attack in Tokyo in 2001.

    Shiro Misaki, a 47-year old owner of a neighborhood bar five minutes from studio, said he was driving nearby when he saw the thick smoke.

  22. Claim: Departing UK ambassador leaked U.S. intel, vouched for dossier author Christopher Steele as ‘absolutely legit’
    By J.E. Dyer July 18, 2019

    The case of the leaky UK ambassador, Sir Kim Darroch, got a little stranger in the last few days. Ambassador Darroch was forced to resign after cables were leaked in which he described Donald Trump as “clumsy” and “inept,” and accused his administration of “diplomatic vandalism” for restoring U.S. sanctions suspended by Obama under the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) on Iran.

    There were other pejorative characterizations in Darroch’s cables to the UK Foreign Office. But you get the picture. Trump had an interestingly strong reaction, tweeting angry words about Darroch and stating that the U.S. would no longer be able to work with him. Darroch is on the way out, as is usual when such a row arises. Nations rarely leave ambassadors in place who can no longer function in their roles — regardless of the right or wrongs of the situation.

    “Ireland’s Prime Minister Leo Varadkar wants to bring home a former Irish army soldier turned ISIS member and her two-year-old child who is stuck in a Syrian displacement camp.

    But Mr Varadkar warned that returning 37-year-old Lisa Smith was fraught with complications and said he would not risk the safety of Irish officials.

    Thousands of foreign ISIS members remain stranded in overcrowded, dingy camps after the capture of the terror group’s territory in Syria and Iraq. Repatriating citizens from the region is fraught with risk and many western governments are refusing to do so amid security risks.

    “I want her child to be able to come home. I would never separate a mother and child, so yes, I want her to come home,” Mr Varadkar told RTE, Ireland’s national broadcaster…”

    The footage was circulated among Daesh supporters, along with a chilling message.

    “This is not the end but the beginning, because our mothers and sisters know how to grow cubs to become fearless lions,” it reads…”

  29. Just one in 12 crimes were solved by police last year as knife crime soars to record high with 120 offences a DAY amid a spike in killings and robberies (dailymail, Jul 18, 2019)
    https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-7260245/Knife-crime-soars-record-high-43-500-offences-year-new-figures-reveal.html

    “Just one in 12 crimes reported to the police ends up with someone being charged, statistics released today reveal.

    The shocking figures emerged as it was revealed knife crime in England and Wales has hit a record high in the last year with around 120 offences involving blades every day.

    The rate of crimes actually ending up in court is the lowest since a new way of recording data was introduced. The percentage ending up in court is nearly half what is was four years ago.

    For some crimes, such as sexual offences, the percentage which ended up in court was less than four per cent.

    Two reports were released today, crime figures from the Office for National Statistics (ONS) and a ‘Crime Outcomes’ report from the Home Office.

    The crime statistics show knife crime rose 8% on the previous year, with 43,516 offences involving knives or sharp objects in the year to March 2019.

    The figure is the highest since comparable records began in 2011.

    There was a rise of 3,301 knife crime offences from 2017/18, with the volume of offences up 42% since the year ending March 2011.

    The areas which saw the highest increases in knife crime this year were away from the main cities, with Suffolk, Norfolk, Lancashire and North Yorkshire all seeing large rises.

    Sarah Jones MP, Chair of the All-Party Parliamentary Group on Knife Crime, said: ‘To see knife crime increase by eight percent after already being at record levels is truly shocking.

    Today’s figures show the government has been far too slow to tackle county lines activity which sees vulnerable, armed young people trafficked into towns across our country.

    ‘With the vast majority of crimes going unsolved, it’s clear that it’s not only policing which needs a boost. Our justice system is suffering under the pressure of increasing crime and needs to be bolstered.’

    The number of homicides in 2018/19 increased slightly to 701 offences from 693 in the previous 12 months, excluding terror attacks.

    However, the number of homicides where a knife or sharp instrument was involved decreased by 9% in the last year, to 260 offences.

    Scotland Yard, Britain’s largest force, recorded 67 homicides involving a knife or sharp instrument in the year ending March 2019 – a 39% reduction from 110 in the previous year, but higher than the 57 recorded in the year ending March 2017.

    Total police-recorded crime, excluding fraud and computer misuse, stood at 5.26 million offences in 2018/19 – up from 4.88 million in 2017/18, a rise of 8%.

    The total number of violence against the person offences rose by 20% year-on-year to 1.67 million, while robbery offences rose by 11%, to a total of 85,736.

    Reacting to the statistics, Barnardo’s chief executive Javed Khan said: ‘It’s unacceptable that the knife crime crisis continues unabated with offences at record levels.

    ‘Children are not born with knives in their hands, knife crime is a symptom of a much bigger problem.

    ‘Our frontline support services say vulnerable children and young people are being recruited and exploited by criminal gangs and forced to traffic drugs and carry knives.

    ‘Urgent action must be taken so that future generations are not condemned to live in an endless spiral of violence.’

    Mark Bangs, from the ONS Centre for Crime and Justice, said: ‘The picture of crime is a complex one. Overall levels of crime have remained steady, but this is not the case for all types of crime.

    ‘For example, overall levels of violence have remained steady but we have seen increases in violent crimes involving knives and sharp instruments.

    ‘We have seen increases in fraud and overall theft, but decreases in burglary following recent rises.'”

  30. the guardian –Moroccan court orders death penalty for jihadists who beheaded tourists

    Three Isis supporters who killed two Scandinavian women given death sentence

    A Moroccan court has sentenced three Islamic State supporters to death for the murder of two Scandinavian women who were beheaded while on a hiking trip in the High Atlas mountains.

    The suspected ringleader, Abdessamad Ejjoud, and two other men received the maximum penalty for the murders in December of Louisa Vesterager Jespersen, a 24-year-old Danish tourist, and her 28-year-old Norwegian companion Maren Ueland.

    Ejjoud, 25, street vendor and underground imam, had confessed to beheading one of the women. Younes Ouaziyad, 27, a carpenter, confessed to the other murder. Rachid Afatti, 33, had videoed the murders on his mobile phone.

    The three said they were Isis supporters. The group itself has never claimed responsibility for the murders.

    BBC – Morocco hikers: Three get death penalty for Scandinavian tourist murders

    […]What happened in court?
    The verdict follows an 11-week trial in Salé near the capital Rabat.

    Ejjoud, an underground imam, admitted killing one of the two women in May. “I beheaded one of them… I regret it,” the street vendor told the court.

    French media report that Ejjoud served a prison sentence in Morocco for trying to join the Islamic State (IS) group in Syria and was released in 2015.

    Afatti filmed the attack on his mobile phone. A video appearing to show one of the women being beheaded was shared online by IS supporters.

    Police in Norway said that the video was almost certainly real.

    […]The prosecution labelled the three killers as “bloodthirsty monsters” after the autopsy report found 23 injuries on Ms Jespersen’s decapitated body and seven on that of Ms Ueland.

    […]The women were on a Christmas camping trip and were studying to become tour guides.

    The killers took four days to identify the women as targets, the prosecution said, and chose them because other potential victims were with guides, AFP said.

    Ashlyn Harris, U.S. women’s soccer team goalie, blasts Christian player Jaelene Hinkle as ‘homophobic’

    Goalie women’s soccer

    A member of the U.S. Women’s National Team called another top U.S. player, Jaelene Hinkle, “homophobic” after the team was accused of being unwelcoming to Christians.

    Ashlyn Harris, a goalkeeper and two-time World Cup champion, lashed out at Hinkle on Twitter Monday after a third person unrelated to U.S. soccer, Obianuju Ekeocha of the philanthropic group Culture of Life Africa, tweeted that the team was “not a very welcoming place for Christians,” citing the Hinkle case.

    Hinkle drew headlines a year ago for saying she turned down a chance to play for the USWNT because she didn’t want to wear the team’s rainbow pride jersey, citing her Christian faith, but has said nothing publicly about the issue in recent months.

    Even so, Harris aimed her jab at Hinkle, tweeting, “Hinkle, our team is about inclusion.”

    “Your religion was never the problem,” said Harris, one of five openly lesbian players on the World Cup team. “The problem is your intolerance and you are homophobic. You don’t belong in a sport that aims to unite and bring people together. You would never fit into our pack or what this team stands for.”

    Richard: By Homophobic they mean she refuses to endorse the Homosexual lifestyle, tolerating it isn’t enough she has to state that it is normal. The modern left will tolerate nothing less the whole hearted belief in their belief system, whole hearted support for all they purpose and the total abandonment of all that historically has been called good and moral. To achieve this goal they are gleefully following in the footsteps of their idols, Marx, Lenin, Stalin, Hitler and Mao. If freedom is to survive we must resist their actions and ensure that their political and moral philosophies are once again rejected by society.

  33. The Squad is a real threat — to Democrats

    A new week, a new manufactured controversy.

    This week the story is a presidential tweet and hyperbolic charges of racism.

    Instead of passing the U.S.-Mexico-Canada trade deal, or lifting the debt ceiling, or passing appropriations bills, or ending the human-made crisis at the southern border, House Democrats stopped everything to respond to a tweet.

    The U.S. House of Representatives decided to dedicate two days of floor time to debating a tweet by President Trump. A sitting member of Congress, Rep. Al Green, Texas Democrat, even forced a vote on impeachment, as if a tweet could meet the Constitution’s impeachment threshold of “high crimes and misdemeanors.”

    This week’s manufactured crisis will evaporate quickly and be forgotten.

    What will last is the rising profile of the so-called “The Squad,” a rabid pack of hyperliberal freshmen who are pushing the Democratic conference toward socialism.

    Led by viral sensation Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York, the group includes fellow Democratic Reps. Ilhan Omar of Minnesota, Rashida Tlaib of Michigan and Ayanna Pressley of Massachusetts.

  34. Pentagon says 2,100 more troops going to US-Mexico border

    WASHINGTON (AP) — The Pentagon says an additional 2,100 troops will be sent to the U.S.-Mexican border to help with security.

    Among them are 1,100 active-duty troops who will perform a variety of missions, including aerial surveillance and logistical and administrative support. The Pentagon says the new acting defense secretary, Richard V. Spencer, approved the deployment.

    Also deploying are 1,000 members of the Texas National Guard. They will be under state control. Most will assist Customs and Border Protection at the temporary adult migrant holding facilities at Donna and Tornillo in Texas.

    The new deployments are in addition to the approximately 2,500 active-duty and 2,000 National Guard troops already deployed to the border.

  35. Kamala Harris Lives in One of the Most Segregated Neighborhoods in Los Angeles
    Busing is for other people.
    July 18, 2019
    Daniel Greenfield

    Senator Kamala Harris, who lives with her white husband in one of the most segregated neighborhoods in Los Angeles, has come out with a call for busing children to distant schools to fight “segregation”.

    That’s great for Kamala, who has no children. Her stepson, Cole, who works at the William Morris Agency, which is about as diverse as his dad and S-Mamala’s Brentwood hood, won’t be bussed to work at more diverse talent agencies, and Ella, won’t be bused from her studies at Parsons School of Design (4% black) to a more diverse design college. Like most politicians, Harris wants to penalize other people.

    None of these provisions and solutions to problems that don’t exist will actually apply to her and hers.

    If segregation is the mere absence of diversity and requires government intervention, as she insists it does, what is Senator Kamala Harris doing to desegregate her Brentwood neighborhood?

    Kamala’s $4.8 million Brentwood home is located in a neighborhood that is 84% white and 1.2% black in Los Angeles, a city that is nearly 10% black.

  38. Senior White Couple Tied up, Slaughtered in South Africa Weeks After Another Farm Murder – Reports (sputniknews, Jul 18, 2019)
    https://sputniknews.com/africa/201907181076286740-south-africa-new-farm-murder/

    “The farming community in South Africa has been shocked by another murder, as a 67-year-old man and his 62-year-old wife were reportedly attacked by a gang suspected of being behind another deadly assault against an elderly couple in May. According to Freedom Front Plus, there have been 60 farm murders since the beginning of 2019.

    Sakkie van der Berg, 67, and his wife Ina, 62, have been found murdered on their farm in the Free State province in South Africa. As local media reported, the two were discovered dead and tied up in their own kitchen by a neighbour. According to Police Sergeant Wendy Nkabi, cited by the local website News24, suspicions that something bad happened were raised when the farmer did not show up for his morning routine.

    Police said that van der Berg had spotted two apparent strangers walking on the farm when he was giving his employee a lift to the town of Boshof on the day of the tragedy. He asked the worker about them, but the latter did not know the trespassers either.

    The man was reportedly attacked by six suspects when he returned home and opened the farm gate.

    “He was then taken back to his house where, together with his wife, [he was] tied up, brutally beaten and shot. They both died at the scene”, local authorities stated, as cited by The Daily Mail, noting that the attackers then searched through the house, stealing things, including firearms.

    During the 72-hour lockdown, five suspects were arrested, while an alleged sixth accomplice managed to flee. The stolen guns were recovered on a nearby riverbed. The suspects in custody are set to be charged with murder, aggravated robbery, theft, and possessing unlicensed firearms.

    There have been reports that the main suspects could have been behind another farm murder in May, when DA Councillor Monica Deniacos, aged 68, and her husband Basil, 74, were killed.

    The Freedom Front Plus (FF Plus), whose agenda includes fighting crime in South Africa’s rural areas, said that they had asked the Free State’s authorities to discuss creating a rural safety unit there.

    “If there had been proactive policing in the district, both these murders could have been prevented. The MEC and minister cannot keep ignoring farm attacks,” said FF Plus’s Armand Cloete said, as cited by The South African.

    According to the party, at least 60 farm murders and over 200 attacks have been committed across South Africa since the beginning of 2019. A report released by the Afriforum group, which champions the rights of the country’s Afrikaner minority, says that attacks on white South African farmers skyrocketed by 25 percent in 2018, with assailants using electric drills, blowtorches, and bleach against some of the victims.”

  39. Stockholm Attack Migrant Terrorist Complains About Poor Food in Prison (breitbart, Jul 18, 2019)
    https://www.breitbart.com/europe/2019/07/18/stockholm-terror-attacker-complains-poor-food-loneliness-prison/

    “Stockholm terror attacker Rakhmat Akilov has complained about his treatment in prison, claiming the food is substandard and that he feels lonely.

    The Uzbek migrant wrote complaints to the Justice Ombudsman (JO) stating that no-one among the prison staff can have any contact with him and that they do not want to have contact with him, leading to feelings of loneliness, Swedish newspaper Expressen reports.

    Akilov, who murdered five people in April 2017 in the Stockholm terror attack on the Drottninggatan shopping street, was initially housed in the Kumla prison but was moved after a 33-year-old gang member attacked and beat him last August.

    Following the attack, Akilov was moved to Hall prison near the city of Södertälje where he has remained ever since. Earlier this year, the radical Islamic terrorist was found hiding an Islamic State flag in his cell within his prayer mat.

    A witness during Akilov’s trial claimed that he had expressed sympathy for the terror organisation at least a year before the attack took place.

    Akilov is not the only radical Muslim to have complained about his prison conditions.

    In Belgium, jihadists were placed in a separate wing in two prisons in order to reduce the possibility of them radicalising other prisoners. A court later forced the Belgian state to pay the jihadists compensation due to the restrictions placed on the jihadists living in the separated areas.

    Earlier this month, it was also revealed that the French government had been forced to pay similar compensation to one of the most notorious terrorists in recent French history, Bataclan terror attacker Salah Abdeslam.

    It was alleged and agreed upon by a French court that the 24-hour video surveillance of Abdeslam in his prison cell had been a violation of the jihadist’s privacy, with the court demanding the government pay him 500 euros in compensation.”
